FEBRUARY 24
ACT of VALOR - REAL BULLETS
An unprecedented blend of real-life heroism and original film-making, Act of Valor stars a group of active-duty Navy SEALs in a powerful story of contemporary global anti-terrorism. Inspired by true events, the film combines stunning combat sequences, up-to-the minute battlefield technology and heart-pumping emotion for the ultimate action adventure.
Act of Valor takes audiences deep into the secretive world of the most elite, highly trained group of warriors in the modern world. When the rescue of a kidnapped CIA operative leads to the discovery of a deadly terrorist plot against the U.S., a team of SEALs is dispatched on a worldwide manhunt. As the valiant men of Bandito Platoon race to stop a coordinated attack that could kill and wound thousands of American civilians, they must balance their commitment to country, team and their families back home.
Each time they accomplish their mission, a new piece of intelligence reveals another shocking twist to the deadly terror plot, which stretches from Chechnya to the Philippines and from Ukraine to Somalia. The widening operation sends the SEALs across the globe as they track the terrorist ring to the U.S.-Mexico border, where they engage in an epic firefight with an outcome that has potentially unimaginable consequences for the future of America.

My wife & I have only gone to see one movie in the past few years & it was Act of Valor. I thought it was an awesome film. I plan to buy the movie when it comes out on DVD.
Thought I would post this- today I took retired Senior Chief, author of "Someone Like Me", and NavyDads member John Quinn to see the movie. John was attached to Seal Team 3 and has a good understanding of the SEAL community and dedication. This is what John posted this afternoon on Facebook
Bravo John....thank you for your service to our great Country. HooYah !!!!
Just a personal comment- I read the book (which is the reverse of most movies - the book was written based on the screenplay) before seeing the movie. It brought more of the human side of the story, pieced together very well the different missions, and for all in the SWCC community really showed how the teams worked together.
I loved the movie (saw it Friday night), and will see it again with/when my son returns next month.
It was pure awesomeness.
Excellent movie! My wife, son and I saw it yesterday.
just saw it for the second time.....just as awesome if not more so as I knew what parts to concentrate on...
sorry folks...cannot embed this but it is worthwhile watching:

thinking about going again tonight or tomorrow.....!!!!!
I just saw it also and will be going again with my wife in a few days and then again with my daughter. I am trying to talk my second daughter in to going also that will be 4 times I have a reason to see it. Keith Urban did a great job on his song for the Credit at the end.
I think the live fire makes the movie better, you can tell the difference in live and blanks.
flippin' awesome....the delivery of vocabulary isn't Oscar worthy, but I guarantee the fire-fights and all the Navy stuff is......
